Two mirrors are inclined at an angle of 30°. One of the ray is incident parallel to the one of the mirror. Then select the correct statement(s).

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, C
Solution:

The ray parallel to one mirror meets the other at incidence; the wedge reduces the incidence angle by at each reflection: , where it strikes normally and retraces its path - (C) correct.

Counting reflections on the way in (3) and back out (2) gives five in all - (A) correct; since the ray retraces, the net deviation is , so (B) and (D) are wrong.
